QUARTS DE CHAUME GRAND CRU

QUARTS DE CHAUME GRAND CRU

Did you know ?

Dating back to a tradition in the Middle Ages where farmworkers had to give one quarter ("quart")of their harvests to the Seigneur, the Quarts de Chaume appellation has always been one of the most prestigious AOCs in the Anjou region. In 2014, it became Quarts de Chaume Grand Cru, the only Grand Cru in the Loire to date.

Climate

Mesoclimatic influences (a microclimate in which Mediterranean plant life thrives) help grapes reach extreme levels of ripeness and promote botrytis.
